Twisting this writer - might journalist be entitled? (9)

I believe the answer is:

empowered

'be entitled?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'twisting this writer might journalist' is the wordplay.
'twisting' is a reversal indicator (letters twist back).
'this writer' becomes 'me' (the person who wrote the clues).
'might' becomes 'power' (being mighty).
'journalist' becomes 'ed' (short for editor).
'me' written backwards gives 'em'.
'em'+'power'+'ed'='EMPOWERED'

(Another definition for empowered that I've seen is " Given authority".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
